SOAP
BOX Revisited

I
wrote this to another blog
a year or so ago. (2005)

And it still bothers me that
Boise is passing a law against
marriages for gays. We all
know that most of Idaho is run
by the Boise set, and that there
is a heavy religious set down there,
that rules us. But I was hoping
that the politicians would stand
up for a union ceremony at least
for the gays.
So here was my opinion last year...
and it still stands.

There are 3 types of marriages.
A. The one in a religious house
(depending on which religion it is)
and headed by the head religious
person.(Priest,Rabbi and etc.)

B. The one where a minister
marries people in their yards,
parks, mountains, underwater, or
while sky diving.

C. one called the Civil Union
done by a Justice of Peace, Judge,
or even a mayor.

A and B involve God.
C. is done by the words of: By the
power given me by the State of (fill in)
you are now married.

Each of these has had their fair
share of divorces. A. probably has
the least, but not by a lot. All have
been gone into, what we hope, are good
intentional people. Good decent
people. People who just want to live
with someone they love and hope to
protect legally. Those who go by God,
either understand the gay life,or chose
not to understand. And some have
the Service idea of "don't tell me and I
won't ask you" way.

The truth of the matter is, gay life
coming out of the closet and choosing
to try to put it back in, is like
trying to put tooth paste back into
the tube. Can't be done and most
really don't want try to do that. So
what about gay's, aren't they entitle
to have some kind of a legal protection
for their love ones?

C. Civil Union seems to be the answer
as they aren't involving God. I really
don't know what the answer is. But I
do feel that there should not be a law,
especially an Amendment to the
Constitution forbidding ones rights
over another, as long as there
is no harm. Gays have been together,
for over 100 years or even more.
Just now they are asking for a
commitment that is legal to protect
them legally in hospitals, (to see their
love ones, as most only let in relatives)
and financially. They too just want
to commit to some one they love.
When do they get to be treated the
same as the rest of the Americans in
this country?

The King had a reaction to
something at work.. We went to the ER and he was given meds...
which helped.We don't know what it is that made the
reaction.. all we know is when he was under the bus, that dirt and
etc. fell on him.. his face.Even with safety glass on, it
still burnt his face. He got out right away, went in and washed his face
and hand very well.

By the time got home, his
face was puffy. Then he woke me

at 1am.. and said I can't
see out my eye. I turn on the light

and one eye was shut and the
other one was almost.

Told him to get dress, and
off to the ER we went.

Long story short.. he had to
go to an Occupational something Doctor. Who didn't have a
clue why it happen but it sure did.

Just continue the meds.

It went down and the meds
played out until the end of last week.

Friday it was starting to
get bad again. Over the weekend it got better... Then Monday it was
starting over. Tuesday a little worse so he wanted to go to an
allergy dr. But you have to have a referral.

Was told he had to go back
to the Occupational Dr. and get a referral.And that is where it started to go crazy.

At the Occupational Dr. he
said you need to go see an dermatologist.

So he gives a referral to
one. They had called but no one answered.

It was on our way home, so
we stopped by. Was a possibility of an appointment at around 3..
Great...Was given the usual paper work to fill out.. And
THEN the gal said.. we have a problem.

You need a referral from
your PRIMARY doctor.. The King replied, but they told me I need one
from the last doctor seen. Nope, got to be your main doctor..So no appointment. .... off to the Primary
doctor.

Got an appointment an hour
later.. Went thru the whole explanation of what was going on.. and
he gave the King a referral. Off to the
dermatologist.Office closed.. the sign
says closed at 4pm. Looked thru the door at
their clock and it says...... 3:52.

So I called from the parking
lot, the scheduler. Explain the whole run around of the day.She tells us.. well. we don't take referrals
from Occupational Dr.WHAT?So we said ok, well, we were told to get one from the primary
doctor.. and have one.. She gives the King an appointment for Wed.
afternoon. at 2:15pm... AND THEN SHE SAYS..you didn't need a referral from a primary
doctor.. WHAT?

Don't forget to be there by
2pm.

So I get home.. and this is
after I have gave a lecture to the King about loosing it with
people.That you just go with the flow,
do what you have to do... try
to keep smiling.. and then you can get pissed off when you get
home.. Things go better that way. As being angry at the moment,
people shut you down.. I gave him this little speech 3 times
as he was dealing with this.

So we get home.. and he is
not happy.. Well, true to my word, I told he could get pissed
off NOW..and the more I thought about it all.. the louder I
got.. because it then dawn on me... When we were in the
dermatologist office.. IF SHE HAD TOLD US ... that they don't do
the occupational referrals... and we didn't need a referral from
the primary doctor... HE COULD HAVE SEEN THE DOCTOR... THAT
DAY!!!!AND... IF THEY DON'T DO OCCUPATIONAL DOCTOR
REFERRALS.. WHY DID THE DOCTOR SEND HIM
THERE????

The King looked at me.. and
said well, I am glad you waiting

until you got home to
explode.

Some how I don't think this
is going to end well.. I just have

a gut feeling... if they
didn't need a referral.. are we going to

have to pay for this out of
pocket? NOW THAT WILL REALLY HAVE ME GOING CRAZY...And they wonder why people go postal...we feel like a ping pong ball, bouncing from
office to office.
